Add CONTROL PANEL to Quick Launch?

Lady Dungeness

Yes -- I use Control Panel quite often. I'd like to add it to Explorer's
Quick Launch, right next to the Desktop. I've looked at Kelly's site, but
didn't find anything like that. I'm using XP Home. Is this possible?

Open Control Panel.
Move your mouse pointer over the Control Panel icon in the
Address bar.
The mouse pointer should turn into the familiar pointing hand.
Click and hold the left mouse button and drag the icon to the
Quick Launch toolbar.
Release the mouse button.
Note: You can also use the right mouse button, but you'll have
to select "Create Shortcuts Here" when you release the button.

Good luck

Perfect! The right-button create-shortcut gave me exactly what I wanted!
Thank you. :)

How would I do that, Kelly?

| You could also add it to the right click of the start button.

Just go to the control panel folder and right click send shortcut to
desktop. Then drag the shortcut to the quick launch toolbar.

Thank you Kelly, and thanks for your site. There's lots of good stuff
there. Just occasionally I'm not sure what a tweak is for, and I don't
install them unless I'm sure.
